We got rid of cable TV five years back, and really don’t miss it at all. Roku you’re the greatest!
As you point out, we still need internet service so my wife upgraded us to Cox Premiere 150 mbps. In retrospect this was a very wise move because we have all sorts of data going over the internet now and I’m sure we’d be feeling it had she not upgraded our service.
As much as I hated Cox Cable, I am very happy with Cox Internet. The service to our house has been rock solid and that’s important to us since we rely on it for so much now.
I’m almost afraid to find out what all would be affected if we lost internet service!
One note: you should check your internet speed and ensure you’re receiving what you’re paying for. Shortly after my wife upgraded us, my son and I didn’t feel we were getting 150 mbps so we checked and sure enough we were only getting about 40 mbps. I isolated the internet connection (removed routers, etc) to prove that, and called Cox. After a couple of calls and technicians, they were able to determine they had an incorrect setting on their end. Once they flipped it to the correct position, we were getting the speed we signed up for.
